            <p>The <a target="_blank" href="https://www.onlyoffice.com/spreadsheet-editor.aspx" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)"><b>Spreadsheet Editor</b></a> allows you to maintain constant team-wide approach to work flow: <a href="https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/userguides/groups-guides-documents-share-documents.aspx" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">share</a> files and folders, <a href="../HelpfulHints/CollaborativeEditing.htm" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">collaborate</a> on spreadsheets in real time, <a href="../HelpfulHints/Commenting.htm" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">comment</a> certain parts of your spreadsheets that require additional third-party input, save <a href="../HelpfulHints/VersionHistory.htm" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">spreadsheet versions</a> for future use.</p>
            <p>In <b>Spreadsheet Editor</b> you can communicate with your co-editors in real time using the built-in <b>Chat</b> tool as well as a number of useful plugins, i.e. <a href="../UsageInstructions/CommunicationPlugins.htm" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">Telegram or Rainbow</a>.</p>
            <p>To access the <b>Chat</b> tool and leave a message for other users,</p>
            <ol>
                <li>click the <div class = "icon icon-chaticon"></div> icon at the left sidebar,</li>
                <li>enter your text into the corresponding field below,</li>
                <li>press the <b>Send</b> button.</li>
            </ol>
            <p class="note">The chat messages are stored during one session only. To discuss the spreadsheet content, it is better to use <a href="../HelpfulHints/Commenting.htm" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)">comments</a> which are stored until they are deleted.</p>
            <p>All the messages left by users will be displayed on the panel on the left. If there are new messages you haven't read yet, the chat icon will look like this - <span class="icon icon-chaticon_new"></span>.</p>
            <p>To close the panel with chat messages, click the <span class="icon icon-chaticon"></span> icon once again.</p>
